Abstract
The present invention provides an image forming apparatus which forms a composite image obtained by combining a two-dimensional code image and an arbitrary image and having high discrimination. In an image forming routine executed by a CPU in the image forming apparatus, a converted arbitrary image is formed from a 256 gradation arbitrary image (S114) and a converted 256 gradation QR code image is formed from a QR code image (S100), a converted QR code image is formed from the QR code image (S116), and a composite image 40 obtained by combining the converted arbitrary image and the converted QR code image according to overlay at a position designate by an operator is formed (S120). Regarding first to fifth regions obtained by dividing 256 gradations from a shadow side to a highlight side, the converted arbitrary image and the converted QR code image are formed by converting gradations of pixels on the images to gradations in the second region.
